Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example of form 1) The filtering system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that filters all content on a messaging application according to the child's developmental level. The filtering system uses a generating AI to adjust the filtering level according to the child's development. This provides an environment in which children can use messaging applications safely. For example, the filtering system targets all content on a messaging application and removes inappropriate messages, inappropriate content, and inappropriate advertisements according to the child's developmental level. The generating AI adjusts the filtering level based on the child's developmental level and displays only appropriate content. For example, when a child under 12 years old uses a messaging application, the generating AI removes inappropriate messages based on the child's developmental level. Inappropriate content and advertisements are also removed in the same way. This provides an environment in which children can use messaging applications with peace of mind. Furthermore, the generating AI dynamically adjusts the filtering level according to the child's development. For example, as the child grows, the filtering level is also adjusted as appropriate. This provides appropriate content according to the child's development. This system not only allows children to use messaging applications safely, but also allows advertisers to run advertisements that are appropriate for children. For example, educational advertisements and advertisements for children's products are displayed appropriately. In this way, a filtering system using generative AI provides an environment where children can use messaging applications with peace of mind, while also enabling advertisers to place appropriate advertisements. This allows the filtering system to provide content appropriate to the child's developmental level, creating a safe usage environment.
[0029] The filtering system according to the embodiment comprises a determination unit, an adjustment unit, a message filtering unit, a content filtering unit, and an advertising filtering unit. The determination unit determines the child's developmental level. The determination unit can determine the developmental level based, for example, the child's age, usage history, and parent settings. The determination unit can determine the developmental level based, for example, the child's age. The determination unit can also determine the developmental level based on usage history. Furthermore, the determination unit can also determine the developmental level based on parent settings. The adjustment unit adjusts the filtering level based on the developmental level determined by the determination unit. The adjustment unit can dynamically adjust the filtering level using, for example, a generative AI. The adjustment unit adjusts the filtering level in real time according to the child's developmental level. Furthermore, the adjustment unit can periodically re-evaluate and adjust the filtering level. The message filtering unit deletes inappropriate messages based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. The message filtering unit can delete, for example, messages containing inappropriate words. Furthermore, the message filtering unit can delete messages containing inappropriate images. Furthermore, the message filtering unit can delete messages containing inappropriate links. The content filtering unit removes inappropriate content based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. For example, the content filtering unit can remove content containing violent images. It can also remove content containing adult content. Furthermore, the content filtering unit can remove content containing discriminatory language. The advertising filtering unit removes inappropriate advertisements based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. For example, the advertising filtering unit can remove fraudulent advertisements. It can also remove adult advertisements. Furthermore, the advertising filtering unit can remove advertisements containing violent content.As a result, the filtering system according to the embodiment can filter messages, content, and advertisements according to the child's developmental level, providing a safe environment.
[0030] The assessment unit determines the child's developmental level. For example, the assessment unit can determine the developmental level based on the child's age, usage history, and parental settings. Specifically, when determining the developmental level based on the child's age, it refers to a database of general developmental stages for each age group and considers the characteristics and behavioral patterns of the relevant age group. When determining the developmental level based on usage history, it collects data such as what content the child has viewed in the past, what applications they have used, and how much time they have spent on them, and analyzes this data. For example, it evaluates the frequency of use and learning outcomes of educational apps to understand the child's level of comprehension and range of interests. When determining the developmental level based on parental settings, it considers the filtering levels and restrictions set by the parents and sets standards to ensure the child's safety. This allows the assessment unit to comprehensively evaluate multiple factors and accurately determine the child's developmental level. Furthermore, the assessment unit can use AI to analyze this data and perform more advanced assessments. For example, it can use machine learning algorithms to model the child's behavioral patterns and learning outcomes and predict future developmental levels. This allows the assessment unit to provide filtering levels tailored to the child's individual needs and provide a safe and appropriate environment.
[0031] The adjustment unit adjusts the filtering level based on the developmental level determined by the judgment unit. The adjustment unit can dynamically adjust the filtering level using, for example, a generative AI. Specifically, the generative AI generates appropriate filtering criteria according to the child's developmental level and adjusts the filtering level in real time. For example, when the child is young, stricter filtering criteria are applied to eliminate inappropriate content and messages. On the other hand, as the child gets older, the filtering criteria are relaxed to respect the child's autonomy and judgment. The adjustment unit can also periodically re-evaluate and adjust the filtering level. For example, it can periodically evaluate the child's usage history and learning outcomes and review the filtering level. This allows the adjustment unit to respond flexibly to the child's growth and changes, and always provide the optimal filtering level. Furthermore, the adjustment unit can also customize the filtering level by considering parental settings and feedback. For example, if a parent sets settings to allow or prohibit specific content or messages, the adjustment unit adjusts the filtering level to reflect those settings. This allows the adjustment unit to provide an optimal filtering environment to ensure the child's safety while respecting the parent's wishes.
[0032] The message filtering unit deletes inappropriate messages based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. For example, the message filtering unit can delete messages containing inappropriate words. Specifically, it analyzes the content of messages using natural language processing technology to detect inappropriate words and phrases. The message filtering unit can also delete messages containing inappropriate images. It analyzes images contained in messages using image recognition technology to detect violent or adult content. Furthermore, the message filtering unit can delete messages containing inappropriate links. It analyzes the content of the linked page and deletes the link if it contains inappropriate content. In this way, the message filtering unit can prevent children from encountering inappropriate messages and provide a safe communication environment. In addition, the message filtering unit can improve its filtering accuracy using AI. For example, it can use machine learning algorithms to learn patterns of inappropriate messages and quickly detect new inappropriate messages. In this way, the message filtering unit can always respond to the latest threats and ensure the safety of children.
[0033] The content filtering unit removes inappropriate content based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. For example, the content filtering unit can remove content containing violent images. Specifically, it uses video analysis technology to analyze the images within the content and detect violent scenes or actions. The content filtering unit can also remove content containing adult content. It uses text analysis technology to analyze the text within the content and detect adult expressions or content. Furthermore, the content filtering unit can remove content containing discriminatory expressions. It uses natural language processing technology to analyze the text within the content and detect discriminatory expressions or content. This allows the content filtering unit to prevent children from encountering inappropriate content and provide a safe browsing environment. In addition, the content filtering unit can improve filtering accuracy using AI. For example, it can use machine learning algorithms to learn patterns of inappropriate content and quickly detect new inappropriate content. This allows the content filtering unit to constantly respond to the latest threats and ensure the safety of children.
[0034] The ad filtering unit removes inappropriate advertisements based on the filtering level adjusted by the adjustment unit. For example, the ad filtering unit can remove fraudulent advertisements. Specifically, it analyzes the content of advertisements and detects fraudulent elements and misleading expressions. The ad filtering unit can also remove adult advertisements. It analyzes the text and images of advertisements and removes them if they contain adult content. Furthermore, the ad filtering unit can remove advertisements containing violent content. It analyzes the video and text of advertisements and detects violent scenes and expressions.

Furthermore, the assessment unit can also determine the developmental level based on parental settings. For example, the assessment unit can use an AI model that takes parental settings as input and outputs a developmental level to determine the developmental level. This allows for accurate determination of the developmental level, taking into account the child's age, usage history, and parental settings.
[0036] The adjustment unit can dynamically adjust the filtering level based on the developmental level determined by the judgment unit. For example, the adjustment unit can dynamically adjust the filtering level using a generative AI. For instance, the adjustment unit can adjust the filtering level using a generative AI model that takes the developmental level as input and outputs a filtering level. The adjustment unit can also adjust the filtering level in real time. For example, the adjustment unit can adjust the filtering level in real time in response to changes in the developmental level. Furthermore, the adjustment unit can periodically re-evaluate and adjust the filtering level. For example, the adjustment unit can re-evaluate the developmental level at regular intervals and adjust the filtering level. This allows for the provision of appropriate content by dynamically adjusting the filtering level according to the developmental level.
[0037] The assessment unit can analyze a child's learning history and reflect it in the assessment of their developmental level.

The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN and / or LAN.
[0140] The headset terminal 314 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a display 343. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0141] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.
[0142] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0143] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.
[0144] Figure 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset terminal 314. As shown in Figure 6, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.
[0145] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0146] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0147] In the headset terminal 314, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The headset terminal 314 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0148] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).
[0149] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset terminal 314. In the headset terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and display 343 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0150] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.
[0151] The data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 310 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314, but may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the headset terminal 314 or an external device, and the headset terminal 314 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.
[0152] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the determination unit, adjustment unit, message filtering unit, content filtering unit, and advertising filtering unit, is implemented in at least one of the headset terminal 314 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the determination unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and determines the developmental level based on the child's age and usage history.

The content filtering unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and deletes inappropriate content. The advertising filtering unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and deletes inappropriate advertisements. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0153] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0154] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0155] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34.

[0156] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a controlled object 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0157] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.
[0158] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS image sensor or CCD image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0159] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.
[0160] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.
[0161] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.
[0162] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0163] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0164] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48. The specific processing is achieved by processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on RAM 48. Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0165] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).
[0166] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the controlled object 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0167] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.
[0168] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.
[0169] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the determination unit, adjustment unit, message filtering unit, content filtering unit, and advertising filtering unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the determination unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and determines the developmental level based on the child's age and usage history. The adjustment unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and dynamically adjusts the filtering level using generated AI. The message filtering unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and deletes inappropriate messages. The content filtering unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and deletes inappropriate content. The advertising filtering unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and deletes inappropriate advertisements. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0170] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting as an emotion engine, may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[0171] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.
[0172] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.
[0173] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.
[0174] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0175] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0176] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.
[0177] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.
[0178] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to the specific processing program 56.
[0179] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.
[0180] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.
[0181] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.
[0182] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.
[0183] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.
[0184] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.
[0185] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.
[0186] The descriptions and illustrations presented above are detailed explanations of the technical aspects of this disclosure and are merely examples of the technical aspects. For example, the above descriptions of the structure, function, operation, and effect are examples of the structure, function, operation, and effect of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that you may delete unnecessary parts, add new elements, or replace elements in the descriptions and illustrations presented above, as long as you do not deviate from the essence of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
